Just bought a second hand corny keg.... I'm in the process of buying all the bits and bobs to get my first keg set up happening.....

Anyone know how to tell the difference between a ball lock and a pin lock keg?
 
A pic is worth 1000 words. :)

If it's a pin lock there will be three pins at the base of the gas & liquid posts for the QD's to twist on to, if no pins then you've got a ball lock
 
Thanks so much guys, I have ball lock by the looks of it.
